Façade Construction — Public Tenders

Façade construction is a specialised trade in building construction that is becoming increasingly important — particularly through the energy-related refurbishment of public buildings and the rising requirements of the German Buildings Energy Act (GEG). Public contracting authorities regularly tender façade works as a standalone specialist lot, both for new builds and for refurbishment projects.

Typical tenders in façade construction

  • Construction of a ventilated rainscreen façade (VHF) for an administrative building
  • External thermal insulation composite system (ETICS) as part of an energy-related building refurbishment
  • Glass-aluminium façade for a new school building
  • Façade refurbishment of a listed building including plastering works
  • Construction of a stick-system façade for a laboratory building
  • Façade cladding with fibre-cement panels for a sports hall

Challenges in finding tenders

Façade construction tenders use varied terminology: "façade works", "external wall cladding", "ETICS works", "window and façade construction", "facing works" or "metal façade" — designations vary considerably depending on the contracting authority and the façade type. A keyword-only search rarely captures all relevant tenders.

In addition, the façade sits at the interface of several trades: windows, insulation, plaster, metalwork and glazing can be awarded as a single lot or as separate lots. Façade companies therefore have to search both for full-façade lots and for individual sub-trades.
